DFL-210 - Port Forwarding

In order to enable port forwarding you need to create two rules on the DFL-210. The first rule is for service to Static Address Translation (SAT) and the second rule is for Network Address Translation (NAT) to Static Address Translation.

I have followed your steps to enable port forwarding. It isn't working. I am seeing default_rule drops in the log.

I have tried multiple services. Is there any preliminary work you had to do in order for this to work? I can access the router from the wan if I setup ssh or https. I have even setup a ping rule and can ping the router from the wan.

You need to add a service for Bit Torrent with ports 6881-6889. This is what I gathered from this web site http://www.dessent.net/btfaq/#ports, but I am not a Bit Torrent expert. Once the service is created you can use it in your port forwarding rule.

I am not sure why you need a Wan_ip3, but you can create it under objects/address book/interface addresses.
